physical self
Your material being
The physical self is one's body as experienced and understood—the flesh-and-bone reality of being a person.
It encompasses how you perceive your own body, its capabilities, and its appearance: After the accident, she had to rebuild her relationship with her physical self.
The term often appears in contrast to mental, emotional, or spiritual dimensions of identity.
